The UFC heavyweight division will be a wasteland rather shortly. DC is set to retire, as is hunt. Overeem doesn't have many left. You'd have to think the same to be true for JDS, oleinik, and Arlovski. That leaves Miocic, Ngannou and Blaydes at the top end with up and comers like Albini and Tuivasa waiting in the wings. How long will Lewis's back hold up? How good is Volkov, really?
Looking to the Horizon, it's going to be a bit of a puddle.
Enter Dennis Golstov.
he's 22-5. Has won 17 of his last 18 fights. 18 of those 22 victories has come by submission, or KO/TKO, and all of his losses bar one came early in his career. He is an international sambo gold medalist and former ACB HW champion.
He is also only 28 years old.
Well, the Russian Bogatyr seems like a no-brainer to me. I heavily suspect he would basically mollywhop anyone not in the top 3, and a good night could beat anyone in the UFC heavweight division. What do you think?

Goltsov is legit but Pavlovich is better. Go watch Denis vs Vakhaev, it was embarrassing. There's couple HW prospects that should be signed soon..
Sergey Spivac. 9-0, all finishes, 8 in 1st round. Just made Tony Lopez tap to a neck crank.
Alexander Romanov, 9-0, all finishes, 7 in 1st round. Just suplexed Virgil Zwicker on his head and strangled him.

Yeah the Vakheav fight, but it's heavyweight so things happen, ya know. Vakheav can end anyone's night, too. He is better than his record belies IMO.
Pavlovich is a beast but he hasn't fought the vets that Goltsov has. He's ******* quick for a heavy, I'll say that. Very fast hands. Very good at looping around his opponent's guard and landing on the back/side of their noggin. I'd like to see him signed too.
So much untapped Russian talent out there. Heavyweight is just the tip of the iceberg.
